I bought the BMW straps and the cargo net to secure items in my trunk. I also have a rubber mat in the trunk.

I've bought the antiskid mat and have seen the net.. Have not found the straps yet.. Does anybody know an article number for the straps because these would be handy since I have a rather large pilotcase for my business.

In the dutch catalogue its 23/24 page.. They are nylon straps. I am looking for rubber ones like the ones in an e46 touring. Those worked great with my pilotcase

Don't forget that in case of an emergeny braking the rubber ones are not as tight as the nylon ones, because they move around. Nylon is better for securing stuff and you can secure everything with it.

That's true iceman but I have to get my case out of my car 6 or 7 times a day.. need something more practical..

Maybe the multifix system is a good one!

That wasn't available when I picked up my car, so I have never seen it before. I don't know how that works, but it seems to be the better solution for you then.
